I am a grown man and I can't remember the last time I cried. I also deal with anxiety disorder and I can't even begin to describe how much this practice helped me. Today was just one panic attack after the other. I did this during my break at work just now and I am still teary eyed. While I was going through poses I just started crying for some reason and felt sudden sense of calm. I don't remember the last time I felt this calm. You have saved me and I don't know how to even start expressing my gratitude.
I just did this practice yesterday and I had a crying fit and I have not felt this good and calm in a long while. With anxiety I feel we hold on to more than we realize and this practice really helped me to let it go. You’re not alone. Thank you for sharing.
I’m really proud of you. I think it’s also really really brave if you to embrace and talk about your emotions and crying. I know society can punish men for that. You’re stronger and braver than you know.
This literally saved me tonight. I was spiraling down through an enormous anxiety attack for about an hour and a half when I started to desperately search UA-cam for something to help calm me down. After a few videos that did nothing, It led me to this.. and THIS made a difference (even if I couldn’t put my head to my knee.. lol). If you happen to read this - You helped me this evening. Thank you.
Adriene, I know you get hundreds of comments on your videos so you probably won't see this but I just wanted to tell you how much you have helped me in my life. I have long had a problem with health anxiety but it's been particularly bad since late last year. My Dr told me to try yoga but the classes in my town in England are far too expensive so I found you. You are such a wonderful teacher, I am completely engaged in you and yoga and you have enabled me to find a peace in my head I never thought I would find. I practise every day and finish feeling whole again. I will be eternally greatful. THANK YOU xxxx Katie xx
@@clairebear2975 Claire, I was diagnosed with Anxiety Associated with Panic Disorder, last year. I began doing yoga immediately after that. On the days I'm feeling anxious, my anxiety dissipates after doing yoga. It truly changed my life. I think you should give it a try and just commit to a straight seven days in a row. Also, CBD works wonders.
@@simonemarchus875 Hi, thank you for your reply. I shall try it and see! I have learnt CBT techniques, they have helped in the past and I must remember to actively use them! Best regards and thank you for taking the time to reply to me. Xx
I did this before bed, so as soon as we hit the ground with the pillow, i fell asleep. Imagine waking up at 1:30 in the morning on the ground on your yoga mat. Loved the practice!
To stop the anxiety, focus to God, know His word, His promises through the Bible, trust God and build your foundation to Him. Anxiety starts if we focus to ourselves instead to God, and also to lies of the enemies that they put on the human head. God loves you and cares for you ❤. The real battle is in the spiritual, anxiety and depression is a spiritual battle. It all lies from the enemy, it is not just a sickness even the other mental disorder or physical sickness it all starts in spiritual but it also effects and the cause is the way we take care also the temple of the Holy Spirit which is our body. If we do not take care our body, it is going to have sickness it also applies to our spiritual, if we do not feed the Holy Spirit His food which is the Word of God, it will be hungry. That is why we need God and have God in our lives, we cannot live without Him.
I just spent the last hour crying, and feeling so down and anxious... I came into this practice not believing in it or myself and I came out of it calm, collected, and at peace. Thank you so very much for this.
You have no idea how much this helped me. I suffer from bad anxiety and I've been having issues with my health lately and it is making me anxious... This literally made those pains escape my mind. Thank you.
adriene does it again. As I lie flat for shavasana, I am overwhelmed with emotions and tears just stream down my face. I love that yoga has that ability. It breaks through and after my practice, I feel as if a weight has been lifted off my shoulders. I hope I can get a good night's rest and will be back to do this practice again. Namaste.
I did this practice today and burst into tears mid-practice. I didn't know I had that cry deep inside me, but it feels good to have released it. Yoga is so incredibly healing and I hope to share the gift of yoga with others in the future. Thank you for sharing with us

@@AbegailD._1 no hate but you're just wrong. Anxiety exists because our brains feels it has a reason to panic, sometimes there's a cause and sometimes it's completely unreasonable. The only reason believing in God works for some people is because it's really hard to worry about your life, your family, the world or anything bad when you can just go "it's okay, God will take care of it all." God isn't making your anxiety go away, YOU are making it go away by convincing yourself there's no need to worry. And if that works for you, great. But it won't for everyone. Not to mention if someone doesn't believe in God you can't just snap your fingers and change that? Even If you/they wanted to lol 😅 I mean do you believe in Santa Claus or the tooth fairy? Probably not, and I doubt if I said "just believe in them and you won't be stressed anymore" is gonna change that
I love how she doesn't use ads in the middle of these stress reliving yoga videos that's why I watch your ads till the end of the video to give you the same support that you gave us through our hard times. Thank you I loved your channel for over 2 years now. Namaste🙏
Election-eve anxiety brought me to my mat before bed tonight (living abroad), and the alternate nostril breathing was indeed helpful. Thank you, Adriene. Showing up for myself was critical, and you reminded me that I have the power and tools to change my mindset. Namaste 🧘🏼♀️.
Part of October 2021 month - When this started I thought it may be a little slow for me today, but as we went on, I realised this is exactly what I needed to bring attention to my breath and focus for the rest of the day. Thank you Adriene, and thank you to the YWA community.
Still- Oct 6, 2021: Former diagnosed anxious person here 🙋🏻♀️, but I still find this practice a gift. 💝✨I always feel relaxed, fresh and renewed after doing it. 💆🏻♀️💕 So even if you don't have/suffer from anxiety, this one is highly recommended in multiple aspects, believe me. Thank you, Adriene, for providing such a comfy and helpful moment. 🥰 Namaste. 🙏🏻
Thank you for this and for all you do, Adriene. Over the past few years, I've realized that doing yoga every single morning is crucial for maintaining my mental health, even if it's only for 10 minutes. I've also started meditating after my yoga every day since the start of this year. I feel like this has helped me gain a better understanding and healthier reactions to my often overwhelming emotions. I am a highly sensitive person, I struggle with anxiety and depression, and I have (what I like to call) "borderline" borderline personality disorder (many of the symptoms, have attended therapy for it, but never officially diagnosed). This means that my emotions...sometimes get the best of me. I have struggled a lot with my mental health for my entire life. Today, for the very first time, I decided to do yoga to redirect my emotions /in the middle of an anxiety attack/. And you know what? It worked. I am astonished at how far I've come. No longer punching holes in walls out of frustration... Just simply sitting here with my emotions and dealing with them in a healthy, constructive way. To anyone out there dealing with something similar, you got this. By doing yoga (or even just considering it), you're on the right track. Adriene is the kindest, most accommodating teacher out there, and she has helped me so much. I know she will help you too.
I’ve been battling anxiety my entire adult life, and most of my teens and childhood. The pandemic and lockdown have really exacerbated it. But this session helped me. Thank you, Adriene!
I’m shocked at how well this worked. I have terrible anxiety and I’ve tried so many “yoga for anxiety” videos with not much success. The second Adriene said, “you can’t tell if it’s depression or anxiety…” I knew she knows what this is really like to deal with this. I’ve also tried a similar nose breathing technique that worked occasionally but THIS way of doing it actually worked! I feel like a new person ❤!!
Been watching you for years. Just had the worst panic attack I've ever had an hour ago, wasn't going away. So lethargic it was hard to make it downstairs to my mat. Had already tried opposite nostril breathing because of you earlier and I couldn't get my heart rate down. But this practice got me out of a terrible loop. ♥️ you truly are so amazing for being our teacher. I will always advocate for yoga healing the body and mind and I will always recommend you:,) feeling so much love!
I felt really off on Wednesday super anxious couldn’t calm down didn’t know how to handle it. The next morning I did this practice and the breathing technique really recentered me and shifted my brain back into a calmer state. With the hip open I started crying and I felt it flow. This practice made me feel like myself again. Thank you so much Adrienne for this practice.
Without going into detail, I feel like I've had possibly one of the worst years of my life thus far. I've had so much weight on my shoulders and I came to a point today where all I could think about was "My heart is heavy. My heart hurts." I had done a few videos of yours before but this one stuck out to me. The problems are still there and I know they aren't going to just vanish, but this video really helped me to look inside myself for a moment and just take a breath to accept things as they are and to try and move forward from here. Thank you Adriene
There are forest fires all around me pretty much here in Oregon right now. I have a lot of anxiety as I face the thought of evacuation and where in the world I would go. After I bought a tent (that will be here Sunday), I snuggled up to relax my anxiety with Adriene and the community. Thank you all for helping me to not feel quite so alone and afraid tonight.
Thank you SO much Adriene for creating another amazing yoga for anxiety video! I hold a lot of my tension in my neck and shoulders as I'm sure many of us here do. Would you consider creating a video for neck and shoulder pain/tension that helps ease this along with mental stress? Again, thank you so SO much for all you and Chris do!
Day 20 cultivate! I loved this breathing exercise! After the practice I felt so relaxed that I wanted to get back to my bed and sleep! This practice is going to my favourite list! Namaste❤
Hi Adriene, I just wanted to let you know that I love you. I stumbled upon your beautiful videos just following a detox off of prescription pain killers. It's 2 years later, and you are still making me feel amazing. Thank you for not only showing me how amazing yoga can be, but for being such a breath of fresh air, for making me feel comfortable and at ease. Even though I don't know you personally, you seem so authentic. I love real. Thank you again. Paula
Adriene, I cant say this enough times: thank you, thank you, thank you. Doing yoga with you has changed my perspective on self-love and healing. Yoga is part of my life now.
Hello Adriene! My 68 year old husband and I (70) started doing your "30 days of yoga" about a week into quarantine. We had a program of exercise, so we weren't true beginners and I've probably been doing yoga for about 50 years, on and off. That said we are now on around day 90 of yoga! We've been through three of your programs and one week did a lot of single-video workouts. Our bodies have changed, our minds have changed and we are committed to doing this for the rest of our lives. My husband is a large man and it warms my heart to see him doing this. This particular workout has done so much for us - 16 weeks in quarantine and loads of anxiety has been quelled by "Yoga for Anxiety." Thanks you so much Adriene! And thank Benji!
Thanks for soothing the hard edges as I start my week long of online sessions... appreciate the flow and still the body/mind to ease. Namaste to all practising and may you find ease in your day
Such an appropriate practice to close this crazy week off, in this crazy world… 🤪😅🙌🏻 Thank you so, sooo much, Adriene. ❤️Waiting for better days for everyone out there. 🕊 Namaste. 🙏🏻
I did some baking this afternoon before yoga. All planned, popped something in the oven that would be fine until after today's class. Dog then decides she has to go outside! Hence finding a shorter practice, so pleased I did. This is a lovely practice. Namaste
Perfect practice a day after my first Moderna vaccination. I did not have to do much with the sore right shoulder, and even my neck which had become tight immediately after the injection (lymph nodes), loosened a bit. Cultivate day 20. 320 days in a row.
woke up this morning finding it hard to breathe and calm down, sometimes i just can't bring myself out of a state of panic on my own. you have transformed my life, Adrienne. I mean that truly from the deepest part of my heart. I can't thank you enough for your influence and the gift of yoga you've given to me and so many others. Namaste.
Adrienne- I started YWA every morning (finally) because the pandemic laid bare every feeling, trauma I had along with the trauma of my high school community (I’m an administrator and buck stops with me)). Yoga with you made a huge difference. This routine saved me.
I literally just started doing yoga this is the 2nd time I watched a video. After I did this I had a huge emotional release I didn’t know what was going on but I felt so at peace. Thank you Adrianne for being the person to introduce me to this lifestyle
Thank you so much Adriene. Your words, "just accept it" were just what I needed it. I burst into tears for the first time during one of your videos. It felt so good to just surrender and accept my circumstances. Today you taught me that I don't have to resist them. I can transform them instead into something more beautiful and more deserving. Thank you a million times
Currently dealing with a setback in my anxiety recovery, struggling with being at home alone whilst also suffering with agoraphobia. This video helps me to feel calm every time, even if only for half hour or so. But thank you so much for that. It’s half hour that saves me for the day
Just woke up feeling alittle out of sorts to today, and lack of good quality sleep last night has just heightened the way I'm feeling, so I neeeded a hug of gentle yoga this morning. Namaste xo
ADRIENE! I NEED MORE OF THESE! I am so grateful to have found these! I’ve done yoga every day for 8 years (and started following you about 3 years ago). One year ago I dislocated my shoulder and doctors still haven’t been able to figure out how to fix it. I have been so frustrated trying to substitute alternate poses and killing the flow, I’ve stopped doing yoga. Yoga is the only thing that kept me sane and I struggle with mental illness and it was my salvation
Had a rough week but I started my day with this practice and remembered that the ocean breath really helps when I'm feeling anxious or blue. I had forgotten over this past week and got really overstimulated and anxious yesterday. Thank you for this reminder that I have the power to shift my perspective. The power in me does t change just because I forget or am anxious and I can always come back to my strength. Namaste everyone!
"The hardest part is just showing up for yourself... and you did." I've often wondered why people say that they found themselves in tears in Shavasana but today I experienced it. I hope you read this comment someday, Adriene, and know that I went from a person who does no physical activity to a person who, tired and upset at 12:30 AM, decided that she should take it easy and "just find what feels good" and rolled out her yoga mat. Your sessions have become hard to skip. Thank you.
I feel better already! I was in a very dark place when I started this video and now I think I’m going to be able to continue my day. Thank you Adriene, once again. Namaste🙏
No words for how grateful I am that I found your videos, Adriene. I was in love with yoga a few years back and then fell into depression and lost complete touch with my body. Your videos took away the assumptions that I had in that I never thought I could establish a solid yoga practice at home and thinking that I had to feel great/ be anxiety and depression free/ be in shape before starting yoga again. Thank you thank you thank you for being so wonderful.
I took a long break from yoga due to some body image issues and feeling gross and incompetent and weak. I decided today would be the day I start again, and was so anxious about making that commitment to myself--this video was just what I needed to ease my way back into a new, healthy, and hopefully body positive, practice ! Thank you !
Blessed Beloved Beauties! Meditate Day - 21 was completed today as a make-up on Day - 22. Ah, it is refreshing. My cells, organs, and muscles 💪🏾 are massaged. I gave myself permission to take a break the past 3 days to digress and rest. This is a beautiful return. The Yoga for Inner Peace Meditation 🧘🏾♀️ was sweet too. Now, it is time to return to calisthenics, weight training 💪🏾 and my jam a run.🏃🏿♀️ Best wishes everyone! Namaste and Ase!🦋♥️🦋
Thank you! I'm a public school teacher in CA and REALLY needed that right about now! My husband is a family doctor who is always telling his patients about your videos. We both are so grateful to have you here with us. Tough times require your gentle practice.
So clever about shifting our perception and allowing the matt to meet our back. Not only it changes our thinking about trusting but also about letting go. Today, I really embraced the matt supporting my back instead of sinking into the matt and it felt totally different. Amazing!! Thank you
Why is it that we choose ourselves last? During this COVID-19 pandemic & having tons of time to observe myself and now with your words, Adrienne, about self-care, why do I always choose my own self-care last? I've been focused on how to serve my Yoga students during this country wide quarantine. All the while feeling a heightened sense of anxiety that I'm not familiar with; it's not the usual anxiety that I can breathe or observe away. I just wanted to be the student today. I just wanted to feel nurtured. I just wanted a wonderful Yoga teacher to help guide me back to my center. Thank you for giving me the gift of my own self-care today. xo
Adriene, thank you so much for this and all of your videos. I am recovering from OCD, coming off of one of the hardest years of my life emotionally, and you have helped me learn to love myself and turn the bad things in my head into good positive things. When you started talking about the power we have to change our thoughts, I burst into tears. I've never felt like I've had that power before. Yoga is giving me that for the first time. Thank you.
Hi Adriene, just to let you know that after 4 years of following you, your words of encouragement are ringing in my head all day long now, not just when I am following your video. You are so amazing to go the long haul for so many of us out here! Thanks from the bottom of my heart!
Lorraine A Brown yaysss I feel the same! Adriene is like my religion! The daily yoga practice has helped me so so much over the past four years! Thank you so so much for all your sweet influence on so many of us xx
I have always felt restless when doing pranayama exercises in yoga class. I rather thought it was pointless and was unsure if it really benefited. But today, during this video, it hit me while I was retaining my breath that there was a lot in a breath. It wasn't colorless, but full of nutrients! I used to hyperventilate (mostly doing kendo), but now I know I already have what I need in each breath I take. Thank you, Adriene!
I have done this short, sweet practice off and on for a couple of years now. I highly recommend this when you just need a quick chill. Everybody can spare 20 minutes and it's worth every second! Adriene, you are my Spirit Animal! :)
I have been practicing yoga on and off for a few years now, and I just found your videos. This video was exactly what I needed right now. I'm going through a really hard time which today left me anxious with chest pains and nausea, depressed, and snapping at people left and right. I found this video and I did it and I feel amazing. At the end laying and giving thanks, I broke down in tears I felt so relieved. Thank you for your channel and your videos. Thank you for sharing these practices!
It's actually nice having these practices, all of them. I'm so used to relying on myself, but everything isn't on me. I can just roll out my mat and practice with Adriene, who's always had my back. I can even feel my yoga mat's support. Thank you Adriene for these practices and for introducing me to so many things. Go us, YWA/FWFG community 💕 Thank you 💚💛💜
So needed this practice today. The cultivate calendar has been kicking my butt this week and I've been craving a slower/wrist friendly practice. Don't get me wrong I love the sweat sessions, but between work and getting on the mat so often I've longed for some rest. My anxiety has been high too as I applied for a promotion today and truly have been working on manifesting what I deserve. These yoga practices have given me strength not just physically. Sending love to the YWA community and those who encounter anxiety/depression often. We are strong!
I stared this session crying and I honestly didn’t think I could get through it. The new breathing technique was extremely effective. Thank you, I will be using it from now on :’)
My anxiety hasn't been well because of the pandemic and I've had enough of the negative energy. I started working out but I have also been thinking of getting back to yoga. I miss it so much but don't know how to get back to it. I saw this video and did it, once she said it was over I was surprised. I liked it so much I didn't realize those 15 min had gone by. I think ima make this my bedtime routine. Take care everyone, know that you are worth it :)
house of winston is one of my favorite shakey graves songs, and it makes me so happy that you include it at the end of your routines. it’s exactly what i love to hear when i’m at my most calm :,)
This really helped. Wow. Honestly, I’ve been dealing with anxiety for 10+ years, never bothered to try yoga. Thank you so much, I feel so relaxed after doing this.
I’m saving this for another day because I needed Yoga For Flexibility today, only 16 minutes and low to the ground super stretchy yummy. It’s important for me to breathe deep with eyes closed to get full benefit from each move, awesomely beneficial for this senior yogi 😆👍 see you tomorrow on the mat Adriene 🧘🏼♀️🧘🏻♀️🙏💕
I am in tears after doing this. I had felt a panic attack coming on and quickly searched “yoga for anxiety,” this has me at peace. I feel so grateful that you have this page so I can watch every time something heavy hits my life. You are an angel 💓
Day 6 Still, I love this because of the breathing practice and its calming effect! I think it is good to add it to our daily practice which has more body movement! Now I'm going to do a short power yoga then continue with the meditation!
KISS day 7, in Florida, woke up to no power, but I was determined to do my morning practice. How fitting that it's for anxiety! This one definitely helped me calm down. No longer worried about the electricity and whatnot. Hope everyone else has a great day! Namaste
Thank you, Adriene! I feel quite anxious about my thesis so I feel this heaviness in my chest. The alternate nostril breathing has helped lift this heaviness.
*KISS - day 37/365:* My mind has been all over the place lately, but this practise got me feeling even if only slightly more collected. Thank you, Adriene, and namaste.😌💕
i am not sure if read these comments any more ,i just want to say thank you,i am a great suffer of anxiety & depression, my life is quite stressful being a carer for my father & trying to build my own life,so thank you Adriene from the bottom of my heart xx
anxiety is...trying to concentrate on the breathing part but then getting worried bc one nostril doesn't breathe in and out as nicely as the other nostril and then u stop concentrating on the breath and start convincing yourself you have a deviated septum. lol. regardless...lovely video!! i clearly need to work on my here and now acceptance though lol.
I found this video a little more than a month ago. Initially, it was hard to even sit on the mat and concentrate on breathing. But as soon as I began the alternate nostril breathing practice, I felt some relief. Since then, alternate nostril breathing has become part of my morning and evening daily practice, along with your meditations and yoga videos. I can't believe how much has changed in just a month of this practice. Thank you so much.
What a perfect practice to start my Monday, with a huge meeting and presentation later.. i feel more calm now and ready to tackle everything 😁 Namaste 🙏
I've never made a UA-cam comment before, but I had to let you know that I'm so grateful for all you do. Today was one of those days when the anxiety took a hold of my body, but this practice helped me release all of that tension. I broke down in tears right after out of relief for all of the stress that's been harboring inside of me. Thank you endlessly from the bottom of my heart ❤️
at the beginning of this video, I was crying, nerve ridden. After some pranayama breathing, I felt stronger and happier. Thank you so much!! love & light to you all 😊
I shall repeat this everyday to help me get relaxing. I started get anxieties since last year. I often feel dizzy cuz of stressed out, it's freaking me out. I'm used to hate myself for feeling anxious most of time and now i accept it, i got a little better now. I have to accept myself, and everything around me and forgive everyone and myself. Hope i will 100% be healed by this end of this year.
I've never done "bedtime yoga". I love yoga, but I always do it before breakfast or when I get home from work. This was "delicious". It felt yummy to do. I never use a pillow earlier in the day, but tonight, I used it. "use your pillow as a pillow" I giggled. I will def be saving this for other evenings.
for whatever reason i awoke so uncontrollably anxious my nerve endings were jangling. it’s been a long time since it was that bad, so after a long hot shower i decided it was time to do Yoga with Adriene for the first time - saved forever, just never took the time - so glad i did; i can’t tell you how much better i feel. i almost cried by the end. thank you for this. the stress, i expect - it’s been a rough, traumatic few months - but this type of anxiety feels like a huge step backwards. i couldn’t even go hack to sleep, it was that intense. THANK YOU.
I love love love this practice! This is the first time I tried to wake up earlier so I could do my yoga before work and my body naturally woke me up an hour before I had set my alarm so that was perfect timing. I‘m super zenned out now. Thank you Adriene.
Thank you for this, Adriene. I’ve lived with an anxiety disorder for over ten years, and this pandemic has been a huge trigger for me, which has led me to re-discovering yoga. Your content is the gentle, compassionate guidance I needed tonight.
I've been feeling like I was going to die for 3 days: my heart feels like it's going to explode, I even took pills to stop this feeling and it did not help. This video really helps a lot, I can finally breath again, the pain in my chest is almost gone. Thank you so much!
Just did this practice after having an anxiety attack. Had to come here to say thank you. From the beginning you could tell there was great care and thought put into what a person dealing with anxiety would need. The practice was short (if you're drained you don't want a long exhausting practice), comfortable, easy (in a yoga newbie again after being out of practice so long), and most importantly effective! Thank you from the bottom of my heart
I just want to thank you for doing all of these yoga for anxiety sets that you do. Yoga has been the single biggest help in dealing with my anxiety, and I really appreciate that you do these routines for those of us struggling with this disorder. Thank you SO MUCH.
Thank you, just the mere action of taking out this time for ourselves already starts to ease the anxiety away. So, thanks a ton for that! I really loved it! I feel relaxed !
I am a grown man and I can't remember the last time I cried. I also deal with anxiety disorder and I can't even begin to describe how much this practice helped me. Today was just one panic attack after the other. I did this during my break at work just now and I am still teary eyed. While I was going through poses I just started crying for some reason and felt sudden sense of calm. I don't remember the last time I felt this calm. You have saved me and I don't know how to even start expressing my gratitude.
Thank you for sharing this, really thank you. You are not alone and you deserve to feel pure love💜
I just did this practice yesterday and I had a crying fit and I have not felt this good and calm in a long while. With anxiety I feel we hold on to more than we realize and this practice really helped me to let it go. You’re not alone. Thank you for sharing.
I’m really proud of you. I think it’s also really really brave if you to embrace and talk about your emotions and crying. I know society can punish men for that. You’re stronger and braver than you know.
❤
Proud of you for seeking help❤ the hardest part is showing up
This literally saved me tonight. I was spiraling down through an enormous anxiety attack for about an hour and a half when I started to desperately search UA-cam for something to help calm me down.
After a few videos that did nothing, It led me to this.. and THIS made a difference (even if I couldn’t put my head to my knee.. lol).
If you happen to read this - You helped me this evening. Thank you.
I am addicted to this video when I have anxiety attacks. You're not alone, jcbstn77!
Yoga is a great tool while battling with anxiety. Stay strong fellas!
Can u say if u got over urs
It helped me too.
Was feeling anxious about what might be tomorrow- this practice helped me feel stronger 💪🏻
Hello people scrolling down the comments. I hope you have a wonderful day! If not, there is always tomorrow!

DayoJellyfish Aww thx
Tami thank you. You too💖
Thank you I needed this today
Who else is watching this while self isolating due to the corona virus outbreak? Sending you love!
yuppp
Yes 🙏💕
Yes! ♡♡
Also.
Yes
Adriene, I know you get hundreds of comments on your videos so you probably won't see this but I just wanted to tell you how much you have helped me in my life. I have long had a problem with health anxiety but it's been particularly bad since late last year. My Dr told me to try yoga but the classes in my town in England are far too expensive so I found you. You are such a wonderful teacher, I am completely engaged in you and yoga and you have enabled me to find a peace in my head I never thought I would find. I practise every day and finish feeling whole again. I will be eternally greatful. THANK YOU xxxx Katie xx
Ps, the username is my "how to train your dragon" loving son! I am not a skullcrusher! 😂
Exotic, has it really helped calm your anxiety on a day to day basis? I am thinking i should really try this too? Thanks to answer xx
@@clairebear2975 Claire, I was diagnosed with Anxiety Associated with Panic Disorder, last year. I began doing yoga immediately after that. On the days I'm feeling anxious, my anxiety dissipates after doing yoga. It truly changed my life. I think you should give it a try and just commit to a straight seven days in a row. Also, CBD works wonders.
@@simonemarchus875 Hi, thank you for your reply. I shall try it and see! I have learnt CBT techniques, they have helped in the past and I must remember to actively use them! Best regards and thank you for taking the time to reply to me. Xx
Claire Bear Oh no, I was talking about CBD oil!
I did this before bed, so as soon as we hit the ground with the pillow, i fell asleep. Imagine waking up at 1:30 in the morning on the ground on your yoga mat. Loved the practice!
I've used alternate nostril breathing now several times to stop panic attacks. Adriene really knows her stuff.
Me too! It's life saving :)
To stop the anxiety, focus to God, know His word, His promises through the Bible, trust God and build your foundation to Him. Anxiety starts if we focus to ourselves instead to God, and also to lies of the enemies that they put on the human head. God loves you and cares for you ❤. The real battle is in the spiritual, anxiety and depression is a spiritual battle. It all lies from the enemy, it is not just a sickness even the other mental disorder or physical sickness it all starts in spiritual but it also effects and the cause is the way we take care also the temple of the Holy Spirit which is our body. If we do not take care our body, it is going to have sickness it also applies to our spiritual, if we do not feed the Holy Spirit His food which is the Word of God, it will be hungry. That is why we need God and have God in our lives, we cannot live without Him.
I just spent the last hour crying, and feeling so down and anxious... I came into this practice not believing in it or myself and I came out of it calm, collected, and at peace. Thank you so very much for this.
watching this after spending a few hours crying out of anxiety. i haven't stopped crying but at least now I feel cared for. thank you, adriene
You have no idea how much this helped me. I suffer from bad anxiety and I've been having issues with my health lately and it is making me anxious... This literally made those pains escape my mind. Thank you.
adriene does it again. As I lie flat for shavasana, I am overwhelmed with emotions and tears just stream down my face. I love that yoga has that ability. It breaks through and after my practice, I feel as if a weight has been lifted off my shoulders. I hope I can get a good night's rest and will be back to do this practice again.
Namaste.
Hi Adriene, post the video for leg split
I sometimes cry when I do yoga too. I wonder why that happens?
Who else is here doing yoga for anxiety trying to cope with the 2020 lockdow? 😢
mhm!
I am...
Olivia Hart-Hughes 🙋🏼♀️🌺😘
I am never felt this way before. But this yoga sure helps
And 2021 lockdown... :/
I did this practice today and burst into tears mid-practice. I didn't know I had that cry deep inside me, but it feels good to have released it. Yoga is so incredibly healing and I hope to share the gift of yoga with others in the future. Thank you for sharing with us

@@AbegailD._1 u gotta stop commenting this its annoying because were just trying to live we dont need ur religious opinions
@@AbegailD._1 no hate but you're just wrong. Anxiety exists because our brains feels it has a reason to panic, sometimes there's a cause and sometimes it's completely unreasonable. The only reason believing in God works for some people is because it's really hard to worry about your life, your family, the world or anything bad when you can just go "it's okay, God will take care of it all." God isn't making your anxiety go away, YOU are making it go away by convincing yourself there's no need to worry. And if that works for you, great. But it won't for everyone. Not to mention if someone doesn't believe in God you can't just snap your fingers and change that? Even If you/they wanted to lol 😅 I mean do you believe in Santa Claus or the tooth fairy? Probably not, and I doubt if I said "just believe in them and you won't be stressed anymore" is gonna change that
I love how she doesn't use ads in the middle of these stress reliving yoga videos that's why I watch your ads till the end of the video to give you the same support that you gave us through our hard times. Thank you I loved your channel for over 2 years now. Namaste🙏
Yoga continues to save my life - day, after day, after day. Thank you for brining the masses this FREE, healing medicine, Adriene 💚🙏🏼💚 namaste
Election-eve anxiety brought me to my mat before bed tonight (living abroad), and the alternate nostril breathing was indeed helpful. Thank you, Adriene. Showing up for myself was critical, and you reminded me that I have the power and tools to change my mindset. Namaste 🧘🏼♀️.
Part of October 2021 month - When this started I thought it may be a little slow for me today, but as we went on, I realised this is exactly what I needed to bring attention to my breath and focus for the rest of the day. Thank you Adriene, and thank you to the YWA community.
Still- Oct 6, 2021: Former diagnosed anxious person here 🙋🏻♀️, but I still find this practice a gift. 💝✨I always feel relaxed, fresh and renewed after doing it. 💆🏻♀️💕
So even if you don't have/suffer from anxiety, this one is highly recommended in multiple aspects, believe me.
Thank you, Adriene, for providing such a comfy and helpful moment. 🥰
Namaste. 🙏🏻
Adriene, your yoga feels so unpolished and friendly in the best sort of way. It feels so safe. Thank you for guiding us through your craft
Thank you for this and for all you do, Adriene. Over the past few years, I've realized that doing yoga every single morning is crucial for maintaining my mental health, even if it's only for 10 minutes. I've also started meditating after my yoga every day since the start of this year. I feel like this has helped me gain a better understanding and healthier reactions to my often overwhelming emotions. I am a highly sensitive person, I struggle with anxiety and depression, and I have (what I like to call) "borderline" borderline personality disorder (many of the symptoms, have attended therapy for it, but never officially diagnosed). This means that my emotions...sometimes get the best of me. I have struggled a lot with my mental health for my entire life.
Today, for the very first time, I decided to do yoga to redirect my emotions /in the middle of an anxiety attack/. And you know what? It worked. I am astonished at how far I've come. No longer punching holes in walls out of frustration... Just simply sitting here with my emotions and dealing with them in a healthy, constructive way.
To anyone out there dealing with something similar, you got this. By doing yoga (or even just considering it), you're on the right track. Adriene is the kindest, most accommodating teacher out there, and she has helped me so much. I know she will help you too.
Half minute into it and I started crying , releasing my emotions
Thank you so much ❤ you don't know how much you did for me
I’ve been battling anxiety my entire adult life, and most of my teens and childhood. The pandemic and lockdown have really exacerbated it. But this session helped me. Thank you, Adriene!
KISS day 7 showing up on my mat early in the morning.
Xenja Xenja I am here for Kiss day 7 as well. Kudos to you!
Morgan Paige I wanted a bit of heat after this so I tried the sunrise yoga afterwards and it was perfect xx
KISS day 7 for me also. Have a peaceful day everyone.🧘
Yes me too/ did a longer runners support yoga first as saw this was a shorter one. It’s been a brilliant start to the New Year!😀👍🙏
Yes I'm still going. Great to see you all are too. Namaste
I’m shocked at how well this worked. I have terrible anxiety and I’ve tried so many “yoga for anxiety” videos with not much success. The second Adriene said, “you can’t tell if it’s depression or anxiety…” I knew she knows what this is really like to deal with this. I’ve also tried a similar nose breathing technique that worked occasionally but THIS way of doing it actually worked! I feel like a new person ❤!!
Been watching you for years. Just had the worst panic attack I've ever had an hour ago, wasn't going away. So lethargic it was hard to make it downstairs to my mat. Had already tried opposite nostril breathing because of you earlier and I couldn't get my heart rate down. But this practice got me out of a terrible loop. ♥️ you truly are so amazing for being our teacher. I will always advocate for yoga healing the body and mind and I will always recommend you:,) feeling so much love!
I felt really off on Wednesday super anxious couldn’t calm down didn’t know how to handle it. The next morning I did this practice and the breathing technique really recentered me and shifted my brain back into a calmer state. With the hip open I started crying and I felt it flow. This practice made me feel like myself again. Thank you so much Adrienne for this practice.
Without going into detail, I feel like I've had possibly one of the worst years of my life thus far. I've had so much weight on my shoulders and I came to a point today where all I could think about was "My heart is heavy. My heart hurts." I had done a few videos of yours before but this one stuck out to me. The problems are still there and I know they aren't going to just vanish, but this video really helped me to look inside myself for a moment and just take a breath to accept things as they are and to try and move forward from here. Thank you Adriene
There are forest fires all around me pretty much here in Oregon right now. I have a lot of anxiety as I face the thought of evacuation and where in the world I would go. After I bought a tent (that will be here Sunday), I snuggled up to relax my anxiety with Adriene and the community. Thank you all for helping me to not feel quite so alone and afraid tonight.
Thank you SO much Adriene for creating another amazing yoga for anxiety video! I hold a lot of my tension in my neck and shoulders as I'm sure many of us here do. Would you consider creating a video for neck and shoulder pain/tension that helps ease this along with mental stress? Again, thank you so SO much for all you and Chris do!
definitely! that would be amazing
Day 20 cultivate! I loved this breathing exercise! After the practice I felt so relaxed that I wanted to get back to my bed and sleep! This practice is going to my favourite list! Namaste❤
Hi Adriene, I just wanted to let you know that I love you. I stumbled upon your beautiful videos just following a detox off of prescription pain killers. It's 2 years later, and you are still making me feel amazing. Thank you for not only showing me how amazing yoga can be, but for being such a breath of fresh air, for making me feel comfortable and at ease. Even though I don't know you personally, you seem so authentic. I love real. Thank you again. Paula
Adriene, I cant say this enough times: thank you, thank you, thank you. Doing yoga with you has changed my perspective on self-love and healing. Yoga is part of my life now.
Hello Adriene! My 68 year old husband and I (70) started doing your "30 days of yoga" about a week into quarantine. We had a program of exercise, so we weren't true beginners and I've probably been doing yoga for about 50 years, on and off. That said we are now on around day 90 of yoga! We've been through three of your programs and one week did a lot of single-video workouts. Our bodies have changed, our minds have changed and we are committed to doing this for the rest of our lives. My husband is a large man and it warms my heart to see him doing this. This particular workout has done so much for us - 16 weeks in quarantine and loads of anxiety has been quelled by "Yoga for Anxiety." Thanks you so much Adriene! And thank Benji!
Thanks for soothing the hard edges as I start my week long of online sessions... appreciate the flow and still the body/mind to ease. Namaste to all practising and may you find ease in your day
Such an appropriate practice to close this crazy week off, in this crazy world… 🤪😅🙌🏻
Thank you so, sooo much, Adriene. ❤️Waiting for better days for everyone out there. 🕊
Namaste. 🙏🏻
I chose this for MEDITATE DAY 20 because of time. It was a welcome practice today. Thank you Adriene and Community!
I did some baking this afternoon before yoga. All planned, popped something in the oven that would be fine until after today's class. Dog then decides she has to go outside! Hence finding a shorter practice, so pleased I did. This is a lovely practice. Namaste
Perfect practice a day after my first Moderna vaccination. I did not have to do much with the sore right shoulder, and even my neck which had become tight immediately after the injection (lymph nodes), loosened a bit.
Cultivate day 20. 320 days in a row.
Aaahhh I also got sore and swollen lymph node after my 2nd pfizer shot. Hope you'll be back 100% soon 😊
Today's practice was appropriate one for your condition with no pressure! 😍
woke up this morning finding it hard to breathe and calm down, sometimes i just can't bring myself out of a state of panic on my own. you have transformed my life, Adrienne. I mean that truly from the deepest part of my heart. I can't thank you enough for your influence and the gift of yoga you've given to me and so many others. Namaste.
Adrienne- I started YWA every morning (finally) because the pandemic laid bare every feeling, trauma I had along with the trauma of my high school community (I’m an administrator and buck stops with me)). Yoga with you made a huge difference. This routine saved me.
I literally just started doing yoga this is the 2nd time I watched a video. After I did this I had a huge emotional release I didn’t know what was going on but I felt so at peace. Thank you Adrianne for being the person to introduce me to this lifestyle
Thank you so much Adriene. Your words, "just accept it" were just what I needed it. I burst into tears for the first time during one of your videos. It felt so good to just surrender and accept my circumstances. Today you taught me that I don't have to resist them. I can transform them instead into something more beautiful and more deserving. Thank you a million times
Currently dealing with a setback in my anxiety recovery, struggling with being at home alone whilst also suffering with agoraphobia.
This video helps me to feel calm every time, even if only for half hour or so.
But thank you so much for that. It’s half hour that saves me for the day
Just woke up feeling alittle out of sorts to today, and lack of good quality sleep last night has just heightened the way I'm feeling, so I neeeded a hug of gentle yoga this morning. Namaste xo
This took me from a full-fledged panic attack to being able to almost smile and breathe calmly. Thank you Adrienne ❤️
ADRIENE! I NEED MORE OF THESE! I am so grateful to have found these!
I’ve done yoga every day for 8 years (and started following you about 3 years ago). One year ago I dislocated my shoulder and doctors still haven’t been able to figure out how to fix it. I have been so frustrated trying to substitute alternate poses and killing the flow, I’ve stopped doing yoga. Yoga is the only thing that kept me sane and I struggle with mental illness and it was my salvation
I still come back to this video time and time again when my anxiety rises within me. I think alternate nostril breathing has truthfully saved my life.
Had a rough week but I started my day with this practice and remembered that the ocean breath really helps when I'm feeling anxious or blue. I had forgotten over this past week and got really overstimulated and anxious yesterday. Thank you for this reminder that I have the power to shift my perspective. The power in me does t change just because I forget or am anxious and I can always come back to my strength. Namaste everyone!
Sending love to all.of those who are fighting with anxiety and stress...I know its v hard
You will have no idea how many time this practice saved me thank you from the bottom of my heart ♥️
"The hardest part is just showing up for yourself... and you did."
I've often wondered why people say that they found themselves in tears in Shavasana but today I experienced it.
I hope you read this comment someday, Adriene, and know that I went from a person who does no physical activity to a person who, tired and upset at 12:30 AM, decided that she should take it easy and "just find what feels good" and rolled out her yoga mat.
Your sessions have become hard to skip. Thank you.
Thank you so much Adriene. I've had horrible anxiety all morning and this just took it away. You are a blessing 💜💚🧡💙
I feel better already! I was in a very dark place when I started this video and now I think I’m going to be able to continue my day. Thank you Adriene, once again. Namaste🙏
No words for how grateful I am that I found your videos, Adriene. I was in love with yoga a few years back and then fell into depression and lost complete touch with my body. Your videos took away the assumptions that I had in that I never thought I could establish a solid yoga practice at home and thinking that I had to feel great/ be anxiety and depression free/ be in shape before starting yoga again. Thank you thank you thank you for being so wonderful.
I took a long break from yoga due to some body image issues and feeling gross and incompetent and weak. I decided today would be the day I start again, and was so anxious about making that commitment to myself--this video was just what I needed to ease my way back into a new, healthy, and hopefully body positive, practice ! Thank you !
Me too
I just wanted to drop this comment to show appreciation and thankfulness to you, Adriene, for your videos.
Blessed Beloved Beauties! Meditate Day - 21 was completed today as a make-up on Day - 22. Ah, it is refreshing. My cells, organs, and muscles 💪🏾 are massaged. I gave myself permission to take a break the past 3 days to digress and rest. This is a beautiful return. The Yoga for Inner Peace Meditation 🧘🏾♀️ was sweet too. Now, it is time to return to calisthenics, weight training 💪🏾 and my jam a run.🏃🏿♀️ Best wishes everyone! Namaste and Ase!🦋♥️🦋
Thank you! I'm a public school teacher in CA and REALLY needed that right about now! My husband is a family doctor who is always telling his patients about your videos. We both are so grateful to have you here with us. Tough times require your gentle practice.
So clever about shifting our perception and allowing the matt to meet our back. Not only it changes our thinking about trusting but also about letting go. Today, I really embraced the matt supporting my back instead of sinking into the matt and it felt totally different. Amazing!! Thank you
Why is it that we choose ourselves last? During this COVID-19 pandemic & having tons of time to observe myself and now with your words, Adrienne, about self-care, why do I always choose my own self-care last? I've been focused on how to serve my Yoga students during this country wide quarantine. All the while feeling a heightened sense of anxiety that I'm not familiar with; it's not the usual anxiety that I can breathe or observe away. I just wanted to be the student today. I just wanted to feel nurtured. I just wanted a wonderful Yoga teacher to help guide me back to my center. Thank you for giving me the gift of my own self-care today. xo
Adriene, thank you so much for this and all of your videos. I am recovering from OCD, coming off of one of the hardest years of my life emotionally, and you have helped me learn to love myself and turn the bad things in my head into good positive things. When you started talking about the power we have to change our thoughts, I burst into tears. I've never felt like I've had that power before. Yoga is giving me that for the first time. Thank you.
Is this real, please? Because I have ocd ,at least my therapist said so. A kind of anxiety! Its been 6 months .
Hi Adriene, just to let you know that after 4 years of following you, your words of encouragement are ringing in my head all day long now, not just when I am following your video. You are so amazing to go the long haul for so many of us out here! Thanks from the bottom of my heart!
Lorraine A Brown yaysss I feel the same! Adriene is like my religion! The daily yoga practice has helped me so so much over the past four years! Thank you so so much for all your sweet influence on so many of us xx
I have always felt restless when doing pranayama exercises in yoga class. I rather thought it was pointless and was unsure if it really benefited. But today, during this video, it hit me while I was retaining my breath that there was a lot in a breath. It wasn't colorless, but full of nutrients! I used to hyperventilate (mostly doing kendo), but now I know I already have what I need in each breath I take. Thank you, Adriene!
I have done this short, sweet practice off and on for a couple of years now. I highly recommend this when you just need a quick chill. Everybody can spare 20 minutes and it's worth every second! Adriene, you are my Spirit Animal! :)
I have been practicing yoga on and off for a few years now, and I just found your videos. This video was exactly what I needed right now. I'm going through a really hard time which today left me anxious with chest pains and nausea, depressed, and snapping at people left and right. I found this video and I did it and I feel amazing. At the end laying and giving thanks, I broke down in tears I felt so relieved.
Thank you for your channel and your videos. Thank you for sharing these practices!
I totally feel the same.
Bekah C. Hey, I hope your doing really fine at the moment :)
It's actually nice having these practices, all of them. I'm so used to relying on myself, but everything isn't on me. I can just roll out my mat and practice with Adriene, who's always had my back. I can even feel my yoga mat's support. Thank you Adriene for these practices and for introducing me to so many things. Go us, YWA/FWFG community 💕
Thank you 💚💛💜
So needed this practice today. The cultivate calendar has been kicking my butt this week and I've been craving a slower/wrist friendly practice. Don't get me wrong I love the sweat sessions, but between work and getting on the mat so often I've longed for some rest. My anxiety has been high too as I applied for a promotion today and truly have been working on manifesting what I deserve. These yoga practices have given me strength not just physically. Sending love to the YWA community and those who encounter anxiety/depression often. We are strong!
I stared this session crying and I honestly didn’t think I could get through it. The new breathing technique was extremely effective. Thank you, I will be using it from now on :’)
Thank you Adriene ☀️🌼
Day 6 Still Okt’21
See you tomorrow 🧘🏻♀️
Namaste 🙏🏻
My anxiety hasn't been well because of the pandemic and I've had enough of the negative energy. I started working out but I have also been thinking of getting back to yoga. I miss it so much but don't know how to get back to it. I saw this video and did it, once she said it was over I was surprised. I liked it so much I didn't realize those 15 min had gone by. I think ima make this my bedtime routine. Take care everyone, know that you are worth it :)
house of winston is one of my favorite shakey graves songs, and it makes me so happy that you include it at the end of your routines. it’s exactly what i love to hear when i’m at my most calm :,)
This really helped. Wow. Honestly, I’ve been dealing with anxiety for 10+ years, never bothered to try yoga. Thank you so much, I feel so relaxed after doing this.
I’m saving this for another day because I needed Yoga For Flexibility today, only 16 minutes and low to the ground super stretchy yummy. It’s important for me to breathe deep with eyes closed to get full benefit from each move, awesomely beneficial for this senior yogi 😆👍 see you tomorrow on the mat Adriene 🧘🏼♀️🧘🏻♀️🙏💕
I am in tears after doing this. I had felt a panic attack coming on and quickly searched “yoga for anxiety,” this has me at peace. I feel so grateful that you have this page so I can watch every time something heavy hits my life. You are an angel 💓
Day 6 Still, I love this because of the breathing practice and its calming effect! I think it is good to add it to our daily practice which has more body movement! Now I'm going to do a short power yoga then continue with the meditation!
KISS day 7, in Florida, woke up to no power, but I was determined to do my morning practice. How fitting that it's for anxiety! This one definitely helped me calm down. No longer worried about the electricity and whatnot. Hope everyone else has a great day! Namaste
Thank you, Adriene! I feel quite anxious about my thesis so I feel this heaviness in my chest. The alternate nostril breathing has helped lift this heaviness.
Update: i'M DONE WITH THESIS!
I always thank you for guiding us with love, empathy, and humor. Humanity awakes and heals through you
*KISS - day 37/365:*
My mind has been all over the place lately, but this practise got me feeling even if only slightly more collected. Thank you, Adriene, and namaste.😌💕
yessss!
i am not sure if read these comments any more ,i just want to say thank you,i am a great suffer of anxiety & depression, my life is quite stressful being a carer for my father & trying to build my own life,so thank you Adriene from the bottom of my heart xx
anxiety is...trying to concentrate on the breathing part but then getting worried bc one nostril doesn't breathe in and out as nicely as the other nostril and then u stop concentrating on the breath and start convincing yourself you have a deviated septum. lol. regardless...lovely video!! i clearly need to work on my here and now acceptance though lol.
Danielle Nevin girl, you're awesome 😂
Were you spying on me the last time I did pranayama exercises? LOL you hit the nail on the head! All the best to you and your practice :)
BAHAHAHA omg i did exactly the same thing. literally. your message is definitley comforting me and my pseudo-deviated septum right now.
Danielle Nevin GIRL! My nose is stuffy so I was nervous too
Yup. My left nostril didn't like the practice nearly as much! Haha. I was a bit concerned.
Hello Adriene
First time i ever do yoga ! Thank you
I found this video a little more than a month ago. Initially, it was hard to even sit on the mat and concentrate on breathing. But as soon as I began the alternate nostril breathing practice, I felt some relief. Since then, alternate nostril breathing has become part of my morning and evening daily practice, along with your meditations and yoga videos. I can't believe how much has changed in just a month of this practice. Thank you so much.
What a perfect practice to start my Monday, with a huge meeting and presentation later.. i feel more calm now and ready to tackle everything 😁 Namaste 🙏
Hello Astrid! How did the day go? I hope well. 😊 💜🙏🏼
@@williamb7275 it went quite well, thanks William!! I hope your day went well too 💓
I've never made a UA-cam comment before, but I had to let you know that I'm so grateful for all you do. Today was one of those days when the anxiety took a hold of my body, but this practice helped me release all of that tension. I broke down in tears right after out of relief for all of the stress that's been harboring inside of me. Thank you endlessly from the bottom of my heart ❤️
at the beginning of this video, I was crying, nerve ridden. After some pranayama breathing, I felt stronger and happier. Thank you so much!! love & light to you all 😊
Love to you, Hilary!
I shall repeat this everyday to help me get relaxing. I started get anxieties since last year. I often feel dizzy cuz of stressed out, it's freaking me out. I'm used to hate myself for feeling anxious most of time and now i accept it, i got a little better now. I have to accept myself, and everything around me and forgive everyone and myself. Hope i will 100% be healed by this end of this year.
Thank you Adriene ☀️
Day 21 Meditate Nov’22
See you tomorrow 🧘🏻♀️
Namaste 🙏🏻
I've never done "bedtime yoga". I love yoga, but I always do it before breakfast or when I get home from work. This was "delicious". It felt yummy to do. I never use a pillow earlier in the day, but tonight, I used it. "use your pillow as a pillow" I giggled. I will def be saving this for other evenings.
This is exactly what I needed today, came into the practice filled with anxiety, I leave the mat completely renewed. Thank you so much! Namaste 🙏🏽.
Sending love to everyone experiencing anxiety and depression. I know there’s light for everyone, never give up 🤎
for whatever reason i awoke so uncontrollably anxious my nerve endings were jangling. it’s been a long time since it was that bad, so after a long hot shower i decided it was time to do Yoga with Adriene for the first time - saved forever, just never took the time - so glad i did; i can’t tell you how much better i feel. i almost cried by the end. thank you for this. the stress, i expect - it’s been a rough, traumatic few months - but this type of anxiety feels like a huge step backwards. i couldn’t even go hack to sleep, it was that intense. THANK YOU.
I love love love this practice! This is the first time I tried to wake up earlier so I could do my yoga before work and my body naturally woke me up an hour before I had set my alarm so that was perfect timing. I‘m super zenned out now. Thank you Adriene.
Thank you for this, Adriene. I’ve lived with an anxiety disorder for over ten years, and this pandemic has been a huge trigger for me, which has led me to re-discovering yoga. Your content is the gentle, compassionate guidance I needed tonight.
I've been feeling like I was going to die for 3 days: my heart feels like it's going to explode, I even took pills to stop this feeling and it did not help. This video really helps a lot, I can finally breath again, the pain in my chest is almost gone. Thank you so much!
Just did this practice after having an anxiety attack. Had to come here to say thank you. From the beginning you could tell there was great care and thought put into what a person dealing with anxiety would need. The practice was short (if you're drained you don't want a long exhausting practice), comfortable, easy (in a yoga newbie again after being out of practice so long), and most importantly effective! Thank you from the bottom of my heart
I just want to thank you for doing all of these yoga for anxiety sets that you do. Yoga has been the single biggest help in dealing with my anxiety, and I really appreciate that you do these routines for those of us struggling with this disorder. Thank you SO MUCH.
Jghcvbbu
Thank you, just the mere action of taking out this time for ourselves already starts to ease the anxiety away. So, thanks a ton for that! I really loved it! I feel relaxed !
Best for morning my body was so aching this morning but this made everything good ❤
